  Judy:

         Each of the wild turkey sightings in the South suburban Forest Pres=
erves were single sightings of a single bird.  If the bird had remained at B=
artel, Wanetta would have been the most likely one to see it, because she sp=
ends a lot of time in the preserves on a regular, almost daily, basis.  Furt=
hermore, Bartel is monitored for breeding birds by several individuals, one=20=
of whom is Jim Herkert.=20
         I did do some follow-up on the bird that was spotted by Mary Ann Mc=
Lean.  I was concerned that it might have been an escape from someone that r=
aises exotic birds in Lansing, IL, suburb adjacent to the Preserve where the=
 turkey was seen.  My questioning led me to the Animal Control Officer for L=
ansing.  He was a very well-informed gentleman who really loved wildlife and=
 knew a lot about the behavior of various species.  He was of the opinion th=
at what was seen was a wild bird, mostly because they are quite common in ne=
arby Indiana, and there is a rural corridor that the bird could have followe=
d. (A lot of that corridor was in the FPD 1994 Plan for acquisition, which,=20=
unfortunately, never occurred.)=20
         Hope that answers your questions.  If not, please let me know.
